Pros
I could go on and on about the pros of working for Vermeer Southeast! To begin, there are the obvious benefits like health, dental, vision, they also suggest Aflac benefits like cancer and short term disability. Vermeer, at no cost, provides you with life insurance. Along with these benefits, Vermeer also provides you with a week paid vacation after 6 months of employment. After the first year through the fourth year, you receive 2 weeks paid vacation. After five years your receive three weeks paid vacation. At the end of each year if you do not use your vacation time they offer you the dollar equivalent of your earned vacation time.Every pay period (every other week) you receive 1.5 hours of paid sick time, which amounts to 5 paid sick days a year.
Vermeer Southeast takes pride in taking care of their employees and fostering a sense of team and community. At the end of each month, if the monthly sales quota is met, everyone receives a 100$ bonus on their paycheck. There is also monthly luncheons which provides you with one hour of overtime pay.
All of the employees are chatty and friendly but serious about their work and other's work. It is very organized, structured, and streamlined. The work flows smoothly and there are rarely issues. If an employee is out there is always at least 2 or 3 people trained to be backup.
Cons
The ONE AND ONLY con about working here is there is little room for growth in this company. Due to being such a wonderful company to work for there are many employees here with many years of seniority (15-20 years). Although, this does not mean you can not take on more responsibilities.
